1. MOUNTING THE DEVICE
LumiNode 4 is a device that can be mounted in a truss as well as in a rack. Please readthe following instructions to make sure the device is mounted and secured correctly.
1.1 Rack mountIn case you want to mount your LumiNode 4 in a standard 19 inch rack, you first haveto attach the included mounting ears. Connect the longest ear (A) to right hand sideof the device with 4 screws, re-used from the device. Attach the shorter ear (B) to theleft hand side again with the 4 screws . In this way the input connector nicely lines up
with the inputs from possible other devices in the rack.

1.2 Rack mount - two devices
In case you want to mount two LumiNode 4 devices in a standard 19-inch rack you
can mount the two devices together. In space saving way that the two devices willonly consume a single row in your 19-inch rack.
First you attach the shortest mounting ears. Connect the shortest ear (C) to theleft-hand side of the first device with 4 screws, re-used from the device. Attach theother shortest ear (D), delivered with the second device, to the right-hand side again
with 4 screws. Use a pair of mounting brackets (E) to connect the two devices in themiddle on the frontside. Use a second pair of mounting brackets (E), delivered withthe second device, to connect the devices at the rear. Each pair of brackets musts bemounted with 2 screws.
121110987654321CBAEDCETo combine a LumiNode 4 device with a Luminex half 19” device, style Gigacore 10,the mounting procedure differs a little. The bolt (F), not included, replaces the rearcouplers at the rear side of the device. Use the correct bold, M10x20, with a screw wire
no longer as 20mm. You can order this part from Luminex (Part Number: R 90 01042)
Screw the bolt, through the LumiNode 4 back ear, into the side M10 insert and tighten
it. The rest of the mounting procedure remains the same.

F1.3 Truss Mount – LumiNode 4
To mount a LumiNode 4 in a truss, you must attach a 10M clamp (G) to the M10 insert(H). After that, you can mount the clamp to the truss bars. Please also secure thedevice by attaching a safety line directly to the truss bars as well (I).

1.4 Truss Mount – LumiNode 2
To mount a LumiNode 2 in a truss, use the two plastic tie wraps that are included.
Bring on each side a tie wrap through holes of the device, around the truss bar andtighten it (J). Please also secure the device by attaching a safety line directly to thetruss bars as well (K).

1.5 Wall Mount – LumiNode 2
The LumiNode 2 can be mounted to a concrete or wood wall by using applicablescrews and anchors. Make sure that the screw head diameter is between 8 – 10mm
and the screw length is at least 40mm in order to make a strong wall connection.
≥ 40mmØ 8-10mm

Drill 4 holes, at the correct distance in both directions as indicated in the pictureon the next page (L). Mount the device in such way that the Ethernet and DMXports are facing sideways, and the chassis side is perpendicular to the ground.

2. POWER UP THE DEVICE
Depending on the model there are different ways to power your device: LumiNode1: Power-up the device with a USB cable (U) or with PoE (N). The
device will automatically switch on. To shut it down after use, just un-plug
the USB cable or the network cable again.
 Luminode2: Power-up the device with a network cable with PoE (N). The
device will automatically switch on. To shut it down after use, just un-plug
the network cable again.
 LumiNode4 and 12: Power-up the device with a power cable fitted with aNeutrik PowerCON TRUE1 connector (M) (please contact your local dealer if
you don’t have a suitable power cable at hand). The device will automaticallyswitch on. To shut it down after use, just un-plug the power cable again.
Alternatively, the LumiNode series are 802.3af compliant (PoE), so that each LumiNodewill act as a PD (Powered Device), and can be powered by any compliant PSE (PowerSourcing Equipment) such as Ethernet switch, midspan and PoE injector.
For LumiNode 4 and 12, if both 230V and PoE are used the 230V supply will beprioritized but the PoE will seamlessly take over the running if the 230V fails.
The LumiNode12 offers the option to daisy chain up to 30 devices via the PowerCON
TRUE1 outlet on the rear of the unit.
